![]() But if you know the natural and harmonic minor scales, it's just a matter of adapting the changed notes, which should make more sense than thinking along the lines of 'it's a completely new set of notes' - which it isn't. That gives a tone and a half gap between 6 and 7, which is 'compensated' for in the rising classical melodic, by also raising the 6th note. ![]() The harmonic only changes the leading note from the natural, so there's a semitone between the 7th and 8th notes. The other minors - harmonic and melodic - use some changed notes, which again can be seen to be related to other scales. In itself, it's used often while a piece is in a major key, to modulate into, seamlessly. ![]() Of course it's better to think along the lines of its relative major, which is already known. The minor scale you're considering is the natural minor, also known as Aeolian mode and descending classical melodic minor.
